EQUILIBRIUM PROPERTIES OF SOME SILICATE MATERIALS: A THEORETICAL STUDY (MAGNESIUM OXIDE, ALUMINUM OXIDE, SILICON DIOXIDE).

Equilibrium properties of the MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ (MAS) system are modeled using techniques from statistical and quantum mechanics. The fundamental structural units in this model are the closed shell ions: Mg²⁺, Al³⁺, Si⁴⁺, and O²⁻. The equilibrium properties of the MAS system are determined by the inter...
